Therrion Posted August 8, 2013 Report Share Posted August 8, 2013 Well, I put it all in the title. What do you think about the whole Zazudex occurance? Summary of the Event -as posted by EvilFusion- I suppose the best summary of what happened occurred in the Fire Fist thread of Your Deck, where I was alerted to the fact the OP was bashing one of the advice givers. Never one to take mere reports out of context, I investigated the thread, armed with my cool head and unbiased wits. This was not a Galaxy-Eyes or Photon thread, so I had no reason to become emotionally tangled in the web of arguments and counterarguments fused with insults. Noticing the steady derailment of the topic by those who wished to fight and instigate conflict or post reaction images that mocked the OP, I reached out with a post, announcing that such petty feuds were a waste of time and effort, and urging people to stay calm and stay on topic, without such contempt in their posts. For a brief moment, I seemed successful in my efforts. On leaving the thread, I noted numerous status messages by the OP, one .codex, that continued to blast people for daring to hate on his powerful anti-opinion stance. I ignored these, only glancing into them to judge the content, then keeping an eye on the actual topic to make sure my decree was being followed. More of the statuses began gaining focus, more members wanting to hate on this .codex fellow, and .codex fueling their hatred with more insulting comments. Little by little, this escalated into a bit of a status war, and finally, it boiled back into the original topic, resulting in him dismissing Side Deck advice, and finally demanding the topic to be locked, to which I obliged. Then he resumed posting statuses and commenting in other people's statuses, until I finally decided to suspend his status-posting, as he was being deliberately inflammatory and posting too frequently. So then, predictably, he posted a few dramatic spam messages in the forums, to which I issued a temporary post-lock. Then the alt appeared, and was cut down promptly, but not without a dramatic status message. This would not do. I could foresee another alt surfacing, and so, more punishment was inflicted. Then Zazubat decided it'd be awesome to post about how .codex was an alt of his (something already suspected). This...did not end well. So now the YCM world bids farewell to a member with an awesome Zubat reference. He was annoying, persistent, and left confusion in his wake, but had such potential, like how a blue bat could become a four-winged menace with enough love and care...but everyone wants to kill them. ________________________ My Thoughts I don't even... I don't see the point in having two active accounts, nor do I see reason that raging on an insignificant website such as this would bring any satisfaction to anybody. Zazubat was a regular contributer, providing nice reviews to cards and bringing somebody with skill (to an extent) in the 1v1 scene. Codex was an idiot, in my eyes. Both the same person? Well, not hard to believe. All in all, I'm going to miss him (again, to an extent), but he was acting idiotic and thus deserves what he got (and probably what he sought, for reasons unknown).

Captain Murphy ☆ Posted August 8, 2013 Report Share Posted August 8, 2013 I really didn't even see it coming, he was the last person i'd expect honestly. Anyway he deserved it, he called Koko a moron and Notorious B.I.G. a nigga. lol (Can I say that word here? Like I remember the Ban the above Poster thread that I killed cause I called someone a niggagalactus.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Therrion Posted August 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2013 I didn't expect it either, as again, Zazubat seemed to have some intelligence to me when .codex came across as an idiot. None the less, I didn't expect it now--- I do have to wonder why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Raptor Posted August 8, 2013 Report Share Posted August 8, 2013 I don't even know who the fag is, but the ban was well-deserved. This is just from what I saw with the whole Fire Fist topic suddenly degenerating into utter bullshit outside of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Therrion Posted August 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2013 It didn't need one, so to say. It was moreso because I grew bored of the status bar being raped by it, so I figured this would be better then that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
玄魔の王 Posted August 8, 2013 Report Share Posted August 8, 2013 Zazubat acted a little childishly at times, but nowhere near as bad as .codex was. The revelation they were the same person shows me he was just a troll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Link me pls As for zazudex, it's a shame that it had to be like this. While zazu wasn't the brightest bulb in the shed and acted immature at times, I still liked him. He'll be missed, at least by me.

Enrise Posted August 8, 2013 Report Share Posted August 8, 2013 And this needs a thread why? You're just fueling his self-centered ego and giving him publicity and attention. More to the point of the thread itself, my opinion on this matter is this: so he was a double account, so he got banned. Let's move on with our lives.

Aix Posted August 8, 2013 Report Share Posted August 8, 2013 Anyway, I hunted down the statuses and found out the details myself. And this needs a thread why? You're just fueling his self-centered ego and giving him publicity and attention. More to the point of the thread itself, my opinion on this matter is this: so he was a double account, so he got banned. Let's move on with our lives. However, Zazu was quite the prominent member in CC, he held more reviews on the review board than even Therrion and he took all the effort to create the OCG thread. It's quite silly though, that he would create another account and post a lot on it just so that he could do this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Attention.[/quote] He already has that from the statuses. Might as well keep it organized and ease the burden of status posters who want to talk about things other than zazudex.

Night Posted August 8, 2013 Report Share Posted August 8, 2013 I blame the TCG kids. He was ridiculed frequently which forced him to create an alternate persona, which then led him to begin flaming and swearing, basically replicating what was done to him onto others. Still not satisfied, he was influenced by yet another TCG-mate, Hatcher, and thus he was inspired to imitate such actions and pull this stunt in an effort to finally be acknowledged by the populous. Too bad come tomorrow, no one will give a single fuck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Susie Posted August 8, 2013 Report Share Posted August 8, 2013 I don't even really know what to really say, sure enough it was unexpected, but he decided to go down the whole double account road, and so he got what was coming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Therrion Posted August 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2013 To all whom say this thread is what he wanted, keep in mind I myself do not give a single f*** about his stunt or your opinions stating this thread need not be here. It is here to prevent front page attention, which he was getting a lot of. We need that gif of Captain Levi not giving a fuck now :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tourmaline Posted August 8, 2013 Report Share Posted August 8, 2013 I don't really care. He had no impact on me and didn't impress me at all as a person. Whether or nor my judgment was made too quickly is none of my concern, either. He was nothing but space being taken up. At best, he was a child who didn't know how to deal with stress at all. Making another account to be nothing but so rude is a method with terrible means to an unproductive and delusion of an end. I prefer his ban. I look at YCM like a survival game, wondering who will be the last to leave or get banned. Whenever somebody departs, it makes the idea that much more exciting, so I'm wondering who'll die next.

Tourmaline Posted August 8, 2013 Report Share Posted August 8, 2013 There's a reason Zubat has a base special attack of thirty. I'm glad to see him leave. There's always such commotion around seeing somebody with any sort of reputation leave, and enjoying a situation that appeals to the belligerent, the idiocy of those who are banned partnered with the melancholic (Black) or antagonistic (Maxxion) emotions invoked by members who watch them leave make the confusion around them unbelievably entertaining to witness.
